Artists:Laura Warfield

Native New Yorker Laura Warfield writes (and co-writes) songs, which range from folk/pop to country/ blues, rock, and children's music as the spirit moves her. Laura has been writing songs since the age of ten. Her topics are wide-ranging, from love rejected (Leave Your Love Behind) to love renewed (Get Closer), from what passes for the economy (Unemployment Line ) women's issues (Lord Have Mercy), from the pitfalls of seeking for the truth (Lost In Transit) to those of overcoming prejudice (Live In My World) and the possibilities of bringing peace to the world (New Millenium.) Her music-- with more than a touch of rueful humor, along with memorable melody, rhythm and rhyme-- also embodies many styles. She attended the High School of Performing Arts and got her M.F.A. from Columbia University School of the Arts in New York City. Her independent releases on SamStar Music are: On The Train, Rocket to The Moon, Lost In Transit and Heaven in my Mind. "The music is unique in that it should appeal to both adults and children and grow with repeated listens. It's catchy and captivating" Sing-out Magazine. Victory Review says "it's the kind of music you play loud while driving in the car or doing the dishes," and Mary Travers of Peter, Paul and Mary says "there's good poetry in those lyrics."
